TabDoze v1.1.1

Fixed

• Keeps the 💤 sleep marker visible when SPA pages rewrite their title immediately before native discard.
• Applies the same guarded title logic to automatic sleep and popup-triggered sleep.
• Removes the temporary marker if Chromium rejects the discard operation.

The implementation still uses native Chromium discard. It does not replace favicons, move tabs, create tab groups, or leave a placeholder page running.

Existing installations retain extension ID dhipcaijoipciglemoefjdlidjmjpnki and their saved configuration.

Full Changelog: v1.1.0...v1.1.1

TabDoze v1.1.0

TabDoze is now an independent product and repository.

Highlights

• New TabDoze name, original sleep-tab icon, and graphite/mint/yellow visual identity
• Sleep/Wake terminology across popup, settings, onboarding, context menus, and statistics
• Native Chromium discard with one absolute next-deadline scheduler
• Clearly labeled 50 MB-per-discard memory-relief estimates
• Removed inherited feature flags, stale feature documentation, and unsupported claims
• Added repeatable tests, validation, packaging, CI, privacy documentation, and tagged releases

Upgrade Compatibility

The fixed manifest key and historical settings storage key are unchanged. Existing unpacked installations keep extension ID dhipcaijoipciglemoefjdlidjmjpnki and retain their settings when the files are replaced in the same folder and the extension is reloaded.

The release archive contains manifest.json at its root and is ready for Load unpacked after extraction.

Full Changelog: v1.0.23...v1.1.0

v1.0.22

• Streamline the extension around native Chrome discard.\n- Remove countdown/exclusion popup leftovers and reduce popup startup work.\n- Keep content script minimal: only marks the title before discard.\n- Preserve original favicons and add a title sleep marker for discarded tabs.
